How does that reconcile with literally hundreds of other servers involving stocks that are still up?

Including literally the WSB discord that used to be linked in the subreddit!

> To be clear, we did not ban this server due to financial fraud related to GameStop or other stocks. Discord welcomes a broad variety of personal finance discussions, from investment clubs and day traders to college students and professional financial advisors. We are monitoring this situation and in the event there are allegations of illegal activities, we will cooperate with authorities as appropriate.

That server was vile. And not because of WSB tongue-in-cheek "retard" "gay-bear" stuff, just actual hateful usage of racial slurs actual, homophobia not just based on using certain words, and more

Your narrative that this is a response to "stock pumping" is completely off base.

Edit reply:

There's proof for my side... Discord said they were banned from getting tons of reports.

There's no proof for a narrative where Discord self-censors over an intentionally vague tweet about social media and stocks.

"We deleted the server to not implicate ourselves in a tool of securities fraud" would have been a pretty damn good reason by itself... no need to lie about that.

Edit reply:

If enough upset people crying over their banned cesspool downvote you, you can't reply to comments anymore :)

I guess in the face of your lack of even "proof", I'm brazenly suggesting that having an admin saying ni*er hundreds of times will get your server banned.
Credits are not 'government money' credits are paid by the competitors. The concept of credits is older then Tesla or EV. They will very likely go up next year, or at least stay the same.

There are a few things you are not considering. Service for example is a huge negative right now, while every other car company is making money with service. Because most Tesla vehicles are new most vehicles are under warranty. This will continue to be a negative but importantly, if Tesla would stop growing, this would turn into positive pretty soon.

The CEO package was large because of the large growth in stock price, that alone is almost as much all all the credits. This will not be this high quarter-quarter and only has to be paid if the company continues to hit milestones.

Importantly however, their automotive margin is still very good, and is looking to improve further next year, its industry leading margin. At the same time they show 40% growth every year and positive cashflow. Automotive is a business of scale and Tesla is still relatively small.

They have been building 3 massive new factories this year, covering Europe, Eastern US and expatiation in China. This is operating leverage, things you pay now that will payoff later. Those factories will not only expand production but also CAPX efficiency.

This Q4 solar and storage were also a negative margin (somewhat surprisingly) but showed massive growth too, in this area to I expect margin to jump back up after this Q4. Tesla global leader in storage and will likely continue to grow that, and with their aggressive strategy they will also likely be market leader in solar.

Additionally, Tesla has multiple new products that will allow them to continue growing not just next year but the year after that. There is huge demand for the Tesla Semi. There is huge demand for the Cybertruck. Model Y has not even started being delivered in China/Europe.

I think if you do the calculation and you believe that gross margin is staying as is or growing, the profit Tesla will get quite large, even as they continue to grow. Very few companies can have high growth and very good profitability, and I believe it is likely Tesla will achieve this in the next year.

Just look at 2019 margin, to 2020 margin, -0.3% to 6.3%. That is in a pandemic year.

Now, the current stock price is high, and even what I just said, might not justify the stock price. To defend the current stock price, you need to believe in the FSD story, at least partially. If you do not believe that story, Tesla is over-valued.

I for one believed Tesla was very under-valued early this year and bought based on the assumption of growth and margin. I since covered most of my position but still have a lot of stock. I do think Tesla has the best FSD story so I'm holding the stock for upside.

I hope this at least gives you perspective on the way somebody would hold Tesla. I think the focus on credits, is mostly distraction. I have never in my analysis cared about credits, in fact I always use margin without credits.
Doesn't look like reddit at all, but maybe i'm wrong. I would suggest Lemmy, much more similar: https://join.lemmy.ml/
Here's a quick fork with one line, no noise, and an increasing-frequency sine wave: https://observablehq.com/d/ed17fc04bb7eb887
I mean, it’s easy to say that OO is useless when you come up with a code example that doesn’t use features unique (or uniquely convenient) to OO languages. Throw in some inheritance or interfaces and it’ll be very different.
The next few stocks to focus on we already agreed, GME>BB>NOK. No further coordination necessary.
That's exactly the point. The selective classes (SNRI/SSRI) are marketed as a complete and safe replacement for MAOIs, on top of the chemical structure irony. Even the new atypicals with innovative chemical structure (and targets other than 5-HT1/SERT) are of significantly worse efficacy MAOIs

I'll edit my parent comment to make it clearer.
That’s the joke. The SEC pursues the mostly harmless while letting the sharks go free. Did they do anything about naked short selling of Overstock stock? Nope, and now that it’s happened again and retail took advantage of a bad trade, the rules suddenly change “to protect the little guy.”

It’s disingenuous at a minimum, and crony capitalism when taken to the maximum.

Are they doing anything about Nancy Pelosi (her husband Paul to be specific) buying Tesla calls before bills were brought forth with generous EV charging network subsidies? “Nothing to see here.” (Nothing against Pelosi and not intended as whataboutism, picked because it was top of mind from some research today and the disparity of enforcement)

Edit: Pump and dump schemes absolutely should not be supported. Piling into a short squeeze is not a pump and dump scheme.

I hope this invigorates even more people to start their own sites and communities and free themselves from the tyranny of the Silicon Valley oligarchs.
People steal manhole covers for the scrap value of 40$ and you think a battery pack that can be disassembled and turned into an off-grid system would be safe? I give it a year before people start swapping cells for bricks of equal weights in part of the pack or sell firmware flashing kits on AliExpress.
selegiline is cheap. Rasagiline is available but I suspect cost inflated. However, I don't think either are targeted at depression, esp at the doses available.
We'll see if the stock recovers or not, but I remember in 2014 Bitcoin's price bubble popping from over $200 because Bitstamp was DDOS-ed. It's a great strategy generally for timing bubble pops.
Isn't that essentially magical thinking? The market is what it is, and their strategy failed. It doesn't really make sense to blame the market when the scheme fails and presumably celebrate the individual or group's purported brilliance when the scheme works. What actually happens is the ultimate arbiter of who profits and who doesn't, not the hypothetical fairer environment that "should" have existed to reward certain strategies.

It's similar to blaming the roulette wheel when the gambler fails and praising the gambler when they succeed.
I tried to comment there with a 14+ day old throwaway account 4 hours ago and was met with a bot deleting the comment.

"It looks like your account is too new to use /r/wallstreetbets. Sorry about that, but people use new accounts to spam us all the time. Please don't ask when you can be approved because we're going to say no and then laugh at you. Your account must be one month old at least."
Well when places like /r/sino exist I think they are safer on Reddit than anywhere else for now. Reddit seems to be ok with hosting anything.
Ideally yeah, would be good if we didn't need to exist. There are a variety of policy initiatives the US could likely implement to bring costs down. My kind of mindset with the company though is I am a nobody from nowhere, and congress isn't going to listen to me. I can make cheap / sell medicine at an affordable price though. So I will do that.

I'm not sure drug importation will work though, not because it's a bad policy per se, but I'm not sure that other countries will let the US import their low-cost medicines if US law changes in order to protect their domestic supplies.

There's Canada as an example case. We have ~10x the population of Canada, and California alone could use up all of Canada's medicines. Not sure Canada would go for it.

Think it's worth a shot though. I know there are some trial programs going into place in Colorado and Florida around allowing drug importation. Will be cool to follow and see how they play out.
> "Market manipulation" is what we call it when you affect markets illegally. If it's not illegal, it's not manipulation.

This is backwards. The label "manipulation" is applied (or not) retroactively based on whether something was determined to be illegal or not. It's not something you can know in advance; two copies of the exact same action might be judged differently.
That’s why they believe that it doesn’t matter in first place. I’m not a nihilist but I think they have a point.

As a Long time lurker of the sub, I’m not happy with reddit closing it down.
Intel Bulks Up Engineering Leadership with Returning Technologist Sunil Shenoy
“retard” is the most ironic example of the ineffectiveness of the euphemism treadmill.

And now, on GameFAQs, I could not include the term “tardive dyskinesia” in a post. It was refused because apparently the four character sequence “tard” cannot occur in any word.

They could, at the very least, simply implement a system that a human moderator receives an immediate notification when a any of their banned words is used, who will then use good human judgement, rather than such wide blanket bans of four character strings.
Even if a check up were $20 what I've described above would happen.
However, if your in-network doctor sends your bloodwork out to a lab that is not in-network, you're now paying a lot more.

Or (until recently), you go in for surgery where the surgeon is covered, but then get billed for an out-of-network doctor that consulted without anyone asking you.
This is good for Bitcoin? :P
Successorship/consanguinuity to the Roman empire has been claimed by more than one country as well. The Ottoman sultan who conquered Constantinople declared himself such. It's where Romania gets its name as well.
I'm pretty sure you're wrong, but time will tell I guess. I've already watched both my parents die of the inevitable effects of getting old, and I have pretty firm ideas about what parts of that process I want to avoid for myself.
Does it prove that? I tend to agree that it's true, but I don't see what it has to do with the current situation. If anything, I expect most people to argue the opposite - when the price drops again, and some retail traders lose their shirts, there will inevitably be a flood of thinkpieces about how cruel the financial system is for permitting them to lose money on the same terms as a hedge fund.

Tesla unveils refreshed Model S complete with an airplane-like steering wheel
What do you mean by "monopolistic middlemen"? Who are these people and how do they manage to make drug prices higher?
Tesla did make an exterior refresh in 2016 and and a limited interior refresh as well. It also added a drastically improved suspension then.

The exterior here is in fact refreshed. Chrome delete, different front end, different lights and other details.

If you see the car on the road, the outside doesn't look dated at all in my opinion.
Are you sure that for example "PUMP" is a stock that WSB is talking about, rather than using the word pump in reference to other stocks?
They're both forms of retirements savings, but a 401k is a totally different form of retirements savings from a pension.
Lie or go bankrupt? Hard choice.
This!

I don't know why the story is with Reddit/WSB.

What kind of incompetent fools are these "professionals" that their risk departments didn't flag this? And if it was flagged: who allowed the over ride and allowed it to go through?

The fact that the rest of the market (Reddit/WSB or anyone) caught these funds with their pants down simply shows that The Market® works: a short squeeze is simply a reaction to too much demand and not enough supply.
Subreddit is back
Your initial argument painted the problem as a moral conundrum questioning where we draw "lines." I cannot agree with this sentiment. Codifying such intuitions into axiomatic rules is challenging but classifying a given situation without being aware of the codified rules is simple and intuitive.

As for your new argument, this is something I can partially agree with. If the landscape allows for such immoral behavior and thereby as a consequence requires everyone to adopt the same immoral behavior as a means to survive and stay competitive then I can't fully blame you for your actions.

That does not fully excuse it though. A Man dying of starvation may have no choice but to kill and eat his own child. The situation does not absolve the man of all guilt. Obviously, your situation is not as extreme, but the similarity it shares with you and your circumstances is the fact that you having no choice does not make you completely innocent. Apologies to everyone reading for the extreme example, the extremeness of the example helps fully elucidate the moral ambiguity associated with hard choices.

Also self justification flies far, people will come up with all kinds of excuses to give merit to their own actions. Is exploiting those loopholes truly absolutely necessary for survival? Or is it something you tell yourself without really knowing the full details? I don't know your exact case, but the above is a common trope people use to lie to themselves. People will refuse to look deeper into certain details that make them uncomfortable so they assume a reality that best justifies their actions.
Discord is absolutely in their right to do as it may please with the platform. My point is more to the effect of the ethos of WSB is not a place for civil discourse and expecting otherwise is foolish. The only reason it exists on reddit is heavy moderation, and that's/was going to be impossible on Discord.
On 4chan, “-fag” is essentially a nominalizing suffix at this point that is semantically interchangeable with “-man”; it lacks any connotation of positivity or negativity.
I said this before [0] and will say it again: The tech community will some day regret wielding this kind of power.

It's about loss of trust, which is, perhaps, one of the most delicate things in the universe.

Now everyone in the world knows, in no uncertain terms, that your person, business, website, cause, discussion board, advertising capabilities, email, online documents and tools can evaporate and be taken away and shut down, with you and your business destroyed overnight.

That's the world we live in today.

This, BTW, has nothing whatsoever to do with politics. WSB was not about politics.

I thought this GME "event" might result in much-needed introspection and changes in the financial community. If you didn't catch Chamath Palihapitiya's interview on CNBC's "Halftime Report" today you should take the time to watch it. I couldn't find the full interview (easily 20 to 30 minutes long) or I would have posted a link (this is the closest I found [1]). He clearly goes over some of what he thinks might have motivated the GME event. I agree with quite a bit, if not all, of what he said.

Part of me hopes that folks now cutoff from WSB will revolt against this and continue on their mission.

Full disclosure: I hold non-directional positions on GME. In English, I make money whether it goes up or down...so I don't care which way it goes.

BTW #2: This isn't to say that such things as porn and other online conducts and content might not be in a range between objectionable to net-negative to criminal in different parts of the world. The issue is with platforms placing themselves in the position of being arbitrers of what's purity, values, truth and righteousness. If that's what they want to be they need to be financially and legally responsible for what they do not moderate. We have laws to deal with the criminal elements among us.

BTW #3: (sorry for the edits). This is also a case of famous Martin Niemöller poem [2]:

"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

Everyone was thrilled when they came for Trump and Parler. Now they are coming for someone else. The question is: Who's next and where does it end?

That's why we went with a Volt. It was the right compromise for us. Allows my wife to drive electric 90% of the time but still can go on road-trips w/o having to find a charging station. At the time we bought, Tesla stations were still few and far between for the types of road trips she would take anyway.
> I also noticed that while they do appear to use pylint to enforce good standards, almost all source files have at least one check disabled...

I haven't touched any of the CircuitPython hardware libraries in... Well, something close to two years by now, I think. A lot has probably changed. Still, when I was last involved, placating pylint was consistently a hassle.

As I recall it squawks about things like identifiers that don't conform to snake_case. All well and good as a general stylistic suggestion, but not especially helpful when that's what the thing is called.

There may be some bad ideas lurking in places where those checks are disabled, but in general I blame no one for disabling one or more of its checks in service of greater readability or better code layout.
> a well-defined media transfer protocol will eventually emerge

Until then interacting with a 'WebTransport Media API' involves me running code distributed by the person running the API. With WebRTC I can exchange a Offer/Answer and then have a bi-directional media session. I appreciate that these lower level APIs help companies that need the flexibility. I worry that the complexity will lock out Open Source and smaller companies. Smaller companies are going to have to figure out things took years to solve with WebRTC. Stuff like

* Congestion Control/Error Correction trade-offs and Latency

* Simulcast

* Re-negotation

* Rollbacks

* Capability Negotation

I was always a big fan of ORTC. Give flexibility to the power users, but give an even playing field to small players.

> RTP over WebTransport datagrams

I don't feel strongly about QUIC vs S(RTP). WebTransport doesn't force RTP, so it doesn't help unless I control everything. Bridging will get a lot harder. Right now it is nice that Reports/NACKs/etc.. can cross protocols.
Streamlit Firestore
All the issues are just matters of backwards compatibility at this point. As far as I'm concerned, we'll always need a text based REPL oriented interface.
He's to a certainty not as rich as Putin. That doesn't mean he isn't rich compared to most other people, even after acknowledging his debts.
I think we're all reading way too much into this.

A couple of weeks ago I stumbled across some youtube or whatever that made me aware that Michael Burry was long in GameStop and I thought that was quite interesting. I don't normal follow much stock/fund news or current affairs and so I'm sure I'd be one of many that stumbled across this. I then think games are all something everyone can relate to and feel they understand and have a high degree of confidence in. Covid lockdowns mean that quite a few individuals have been spending less and may have some disposable income and so a sort of fall the leader lemmings investment run happened and then generates the hype and brings more a'la bitcoin a year or two ago.
Own your timeline and be super upfront about it. Setting expectations in the beginning is a big one. I like to let freelance clients know what my typical turn-around is, how unexpected requests are handled, and most importantly what I charge when there is a rush.

Only[1] height above terrain matters for VHF radio and up. Unless you pay the big bucks for power and space on a tower or the top of some building, it doesn't matter how impressive your modulation gain is or how powerful your transmitter is or how high of gain your antenna is. Your software is barely relevant.

The thing that makes the cellphone mesh network work is that they spend lots of money getting their antennas up high above the terrain and getting power to them.

[1] Yes, there's sporadic e tranmission but it's just that, sporadic. And yes, there's troposcatter but that literally requires kilowatts and highly directional large antennas.
That ridiculous. There have been a few references to the Scunthorpe problem lately, so I won’t repeat it.

It would go out. In a room cold enough for Oxygen to turn solid, there would be no gaseous oxygen to sustain the match’s combustion as it falls. The wood would have some latent heat, but not enough to re-ignite itself in a room that cold.
It will be a sterile fill-finish facility. The facility will fill vials of sterile injectable medicine. Those tend to be the drugs which are most affected by shortages and price gouging overall. The facility will just do finished drug products.

Our initial drugs are supplied on "private label" arrangements where other companies actually do the manufacturing, and we just add our labels and our own NDC code so we can set the price. Since we don't go through middlemen, that price can often times be a lot lower.

We'll have to source API (active pharmaceutical ingredients) elsewhere for now. At some point, would like to completely internalize our supply chain, but one step at a time. :-)
It would execute at the gap right?

The fundamentals of bitcoin are illegal drug deals and money laundering. We can argue over how much that's worth, given the volume of BTC, and difficulty of the necessary conversion back to currency that banks/landlords/cafes/etc will accept, but that's not zero.
It's a simple as the perception that Apple is a hardware company and Google/Facebook are information services company. It's much easier to draw a connection between Google/Facebook operating legally in China (and having their products subject to PRC information controls) and suppression of liberal/democratic ideals, than Apple selling hardware devices that are information-agnostic to the same.
